 Overview This hike begins at Middlemarch Road #345 (which can be driven in a car if dry), near Middlemarch Pass, and climbs through oak forest to the top of Soren Canyon along Forest Road 345A (see road conditions below). At the top of the canyon, the road reaches Soren Pass, where one can enjoy views in all directions from the crest of the Dragoon Mountains. From the pass, the road descends for another mile to the abandoned Abril Mine, where one can scramble downslope a short distance to the Slavin Gulch Trail #332. Soren Camp Road also can be used to make off-trail connecting hikes to China Peak, Cochise Peak, and Middlemarch Canyon. Note Soren Camp Road #345A is a narrow, high clearance 2wd road until mile 2.1, where it becomes 4wd. Beyond mile 2.7 (just before Soren Pass), the road becomes heavily eroded and steep, and is only accessible to high clearance 4wd jeeps. Check out the Triplogs.
